T F  The IP checksum protects the entire IP datagram  The IP protocol itself maps IP addresses to LAN addresses and vice versa  IP can run over networks with MTU 40 bytes  IP and IPX (another layer 3 protocol) cannot multiplex a single SLIP line   The MTU parameter is needed for address mapping  The header length field uses units of 4-octets while the total length field uses units of 1-octet.  If input peak rate is equal to average rate, spatial multiplexing of the resource is not possible.

Shivkumar Kalyanaraman Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute 2  TCP can re-assemble IP fragments  Path-MTU refers to the procedure of finding the minimum MTU of the path to reduce the probability of fragmentation.  The checksum field is the 16-bit two’s complement of the one’s complement sum of all 16-bit words in the header.  TCP provides reliability only at a packet-level.  The TOS byte semantics is inconsistent with the IP model of providing only best-effort service.  Transport protocols are minimally required because IP does not provide application multiplexing support
